John and Kate plus Eight on the Peoria.com Forums - Page 7

I have thought the same thing, that is wasan't for all those kids would John stick around and continue to tolerate the way Kate treats him? The kids are getting so big, they are adorable .

It is fact that Kate and John have all of the "perks" and have for a really long time. organic food made for her 5 ays a week and a nanny that you do not see on the show. I live 3 miles from her and know several people that live in her development. She will not even speak to her neighbors. She lives in a very small town with plenty of nice neighbors and will not even speak to them if they walk by. She shews the kids in the house so that they can not say hi and refuses them to talk with any of the niehgborhood kids for fear that someone will take their picture. IT is really sad that this is what she has come to. I belive she started out with a good heart but this roller coaster that she is on has gotten out of control. IT seems as though she is using those kids and she will have to answer for that in Gods eyes.

Obviosly, she sees herself as a celebrity and her kids also.

We must be careful not to judge other people. Kate has a big responsibility to all her children and to keep them safe. She needs to be a little over protective she's has six toddlers to watch. Thank God she has perks with the t.v. show. So she can bless her kids with lots of fun things to do like an average family does. I hope she continues to take her children on mini vacations like Disney World. They deserve it. I love Kate I wish I was organized like her. She's doing all the right things in Parenting. I like all the memories she and her husband are creating for the family. Like the family Mission Statement she did. Also bringing them up in the Lord and taking them to church. I hope to see them pray for there food sometimes. Let's Pray for John & Kate they are awesome.

I agree Chica! I love that show. Kate puts me to shame as a parent and I only have 1. She has a hige responsibility and she is a great mom.

From relatives that live in the Area. They are paid up to One Hundred Thousand dollars an episode for the show. I will not watch the show.Those kids are her meal ticket and she is using them for all its worth.It is not in the kids best interest to have cameras in their face all day every day.Why do you think her parents don't have anything to do with them? They don't approve of her actions either.

O.K., if they are so "well off", financially, w/o the show, why are they subjecting those kids to having cameras in their faces everyday? Are they just "greedy"? Who REALLY pays for the trips to "Disney World", who paid for Kate's "Tummy-Tuck"...she spent 5 days at her Surgeons to recupperate...who helped w/ the 8 kids? They never show John and Kate having ANY alone time together at the end of the day...they show her ragging on HIM about this and that but he doesn't do that to her. All I know is they are 8 BEAUTIFUL kids...cute as can be!!

the surgeons wife saw the show and kates stomach and talked to her husband and he did it for free

They don';t pay for anything,Cloths are almost all donated. Trips are paid for.Her houskeeper keeps house, not her. If the cameras aren't rolling the nannies are watching the kids.Her Chef cooks all their organic meals.I assure you John and Kate have plenty time to themselves, we just don't see it. She has it much easier than most parents have.Personally i feel like the show is is a scam. Kate loves being in the spotlight.

WOW!!!To bad a production company (other than "The Nanny" shows) can't go into a home and show "real life" w/o Chefs, Nannies, housekeepers, etc. and pay THOSE families that really need the $$$$. If Kate and John are so well off, why are they accepting the $$$.$$$ if they "really don't need it", and accepting clothes that are donations....yes there are college funds, but, c'mon!I watch the show tonight where they have family photos taken in a park during the change of leaves and the color...during the interveiw on the couch, John had a shirt on that said" This Dad Needs a Time Out" after the first shot, they had folded it over so you couldn't actually read what it says. What EvEEER!

It won't be long the show will be off the air. The Septuplets are now 4 years old and will be in school all day and there won't be anything to film. All the money they make from the show now is banked for their future after the show is done. They will be multi millionaires by that time and living on easy street..If they are making 100,000 per episode and are sceduled for at least 40 more do the math.

If you want to read about how Kate really is read this blog from a family member of Kate's. www.truthishatred.blogspot.com A close family member, i think she has alienated her whole family.Its sad for the kids not to have the love of family all because Kate is money hungry.

carolu83- the link is not working, will you double check and repost? Thanks!

When J & K found out they were having 6 babies they were encouraged to do selective reduction and have at most 3 babies. They didn't do it, they had faith that God would help them survive. When the babies were 1 Kate was still working 12 hour days as a nurse on the weekends. If there life has been made easier by doing the show then great for them. Would I turn down the opportunity to get great trips for my daughter, help with housework, or free clothes? Heck no! Their kids seem like healthy, happy, smart kids so good for them!

I sure will. I just read and it really makes me dislike Kate a lot more.
